Bovine campylobacteriosis is caused by Campylobacter jejuni or Campylobacter coli. Although it is a commensal in the gastrointestinal tract of many species, it can cause diarrhea - mainly in young animals. It is most commonly seen in cattle, but may also infect many other species, including humans. Campylobacter is spread horizontally via the fecal-oral route.Campylobacteriosis - Cattle, reviewed and published by Wikivet at http://en.wikivet.net/Campylobacteriosis_-_Cattle, accessed 24/08/2011.
